HAY, GEORGE (17291811) , Scottish Roman Catholic divine, was born at Edinburgh on the 24th of August 1729. He was accused of sympathizing with the rebellion of 1745 and served a
term
  of imprisonment 17461747. He then entered the Roman Catholic
Church
 , studied in the Scots College at Rome, and in 1759 accompanied John
Geddes
  (17351799), afterwards
bishop
  of Morocco, on a Scottish mission. Ten years later, he was appointed
bishop
  of Daulis in partibus and coadjutor to Bishop James Grant (17061778). In 1778 he became
vicar
  apostolic of the lowland
district
 . During the
Protestant
  riots in Edinburgh in 1779 his furniture and library were destroyed by fire. From 1788 to 1793 he was in charge of the Scalan
seminary
 ; in 1802 he retired to that of Aquhorties near Inverury which he had founded in 1799. He died there on the 15th of October 1811.
His theological works, including The Sincere Christian, The Devout Christian, The Pious Christian and The Scripture
Doctrine
  of Miracles, were edited by Bishop Strain in 1871-1873.
